GL 4-5 gear oil has much better shock loading capability than SUDT or UDT, at least in my application it does. Is it cheaper? I don't believe so but it stinks a lot more...lol I use Shell 85 140 GL5 myself and if your seals are marginal, it won't leak out as much either.Could you elaborate on the gear oil instead of the sudt. The stuff is stupid expensive. And from what i am hearing they are pretty straight forward to fix. And if they are failing for shock load issues, don't see where the expensive fluid is getting me anywhere. Chances are I am going to break something long before using sudt makes any sense.
